SB 497
Increasing Lawfare Initiatives Against Employers.
2023 - California Senate

Vote Description
This bill amends existing law to create a rebuttable presumption of an employee’s claim against an employer if the employer engages in retaliatory activity against an employee within 90 days after the employee engages in certain protected activities. CPAC believes that this sets the stage for a mountain of frivolous litigation against employers, recognizes that this measure hamstrings the efforts of employers to hire and promote the best employees, and opposed this bill. The Senate passed this bill on May 30, 2023 by a vote of 29-10 and the bill later became law.
